Configuring settings.xml file

To stage release, you we'll need to enable connection with Sonatype OSSRH. 

...

<settings>
	...
	<servers>
		<server>
			<id>sonatype-nexus-staging</id>	
			<username>your-jira-id</username>
			<password>your-jira-pwd</password>
		</server>
	</servers>
 
	...
</settings>

In case you don't already have Sonatype JIRA account and publish rights to Slice, firstly you'll need to create an account on https://issues.sonatype.org/.

After that to get write permission to Slice, you will need to ask for it using comment by creating a JIRA ticket (you can take a looks at comments on this ticket).

The information about public key and scm username are also required and will need to add to chosen profile a path to the public key and scm.username file, e.g.:

<settings>
	...
	<profile>
		<id>slice-author</id>
		<activation>
			<activeByDefault>false</activeByDefault>
		</activation>
  
		<properties>
    			<privateKey>C:\Users\kamil.ciecierski\.ssh\id_dsa.pub</privateKey>
    			<scm.username>git</scm.username>
		</properties>
		...
	</profile> 
	...
</settings>
